Hillary Clinton Projected To Win Nevada Caucuses

Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders acknowledged Sunday that he failed to turn out as many people in the Nevada caucuses as he hoped he would, a factor the Vermont senator suggested contributed to his loss on Saturday to Hillary Clinton.

He’s trying to rebound after losing the Nevada caucus Saturday to Hillary Clinton by 5 percentage points.

Clyburn’s endorsement comes as Clinton battles rival Bernie Sanders for the support of blacks in the SC contest on February 27, when more than half of the voters are likely to be black. Among that group, Clinton led with two-thirds of the vote.

Sanders said in his statement that he congratulated Clinton, he’s proud of his campaign, and he’s expecting to leave Nevada with a “solid share” of the delegates available there.

Sanders sounded upbeat in a short speech to excited supporters in Nevada Saturday evening.

Clinton backers can take solace in halting the wave of momentum Sanders rode into Nevada and its caucuses. These were, we were told, the people who “knew” him “well” because he was their “next-door” neighbor.

Actress America Ferrara, who was on site, tweeted that Sanders’ supporters were chanting “English-only” to prevent Huerta from speaking. Sanders beat her in New Hampshire.

Both Council and his wife, Jeannine, say they came out in support of Sanders because he’s proven his viability as a candidate with a win in New Hampshire and a very close second in Iowa. No bank can be too big to fail, no executive too powerful to jail, ‘ which was the clip that Todd played for Sanders, she also brought up Wall Street in the context of campaign finance reform. Clinton exclaimed in her Las Vegas victory speech.

Clinton and Sanders meet again on March 1 when 11 states – including Texas – vote on Super Tuesday.

“To everyone who turned out in every corner of Nevada with determination and heart: This is your win”, she wrote.

Austen High, executive director of the Wake County Democratic Party, said it is especially important for Clinton and other Democratic candidates to campaign in North Carolina because of the state’s new voter ID law and the issues with redistricting.

The Clinton camp hoped that her disappointing showing in the predominantly white early nominating states would quickly be erased once the nomination process moved to states with an ethnic makeup more representative of the wider electorate.
